Chapter 252 The Magical Use of the Corpse Turtle King

"Corpse Turtle King?"

Zhang Moyu was slightly surprised. He had only seen this kind of little bug twice so far.

The first time was a few years ago when I first met Wuxie. I saw it in the corpse soul bead in the brain of a corpse puppet.

Once, when he was following Zhang Qiling's trail and going to the tomb of Prince Lu, he encountered one. Later, Pan Zi killed it with a slap, and it also triggered a tide of corpse turtles.

It was also at this time that he learned from Zhang Qiling that this thing was called the Corpse Turtle King. Before this, he had always thought that it was a poisonous insect developed by later generations to control the mind or to avoid death and prolong life.

This little guy looks quite different from the ordinary corpse beetle. Whether it is from its own abilities or its ability to survive and adapt to parasitizing the human body, it is like two completely different species.

Zhang Benling saw that the little red bug in the jar had awakened, flapping its wings, and seemed eager to come out. He immediately took out the mineral water from the side pocket of his backpack, tilted his head back and drank the remaining water in the bottle.

Then he reached in, picked up the corpse turtle kings with his bare hands, and stuffed them into empty mineral water bottles one by one.

Zhang Moyu was watching from the side, but he didn't stop. Not far away, Wuxie, who had recovered by now, was crying out in pain and holding his head. His eyes widened when he saw this scene.

Catch the Corpse Turtle King with bare hands?

Didn't the little brother say that the Corpse Turtle King was poisonous? Why is Zhang Benling toying with the Corpse Turtle King without any problem?

Moreover, the corpse turtle king he encountered before was also knocked to the ground by Pan Zi with the butt of his gun as soon as he appeared. He died on the spot. His death was quite hasty.

Wuxie felt that he had been deceived, so the Corpse Turtle King was not as powerful as he thought, right?

A total of fifteen red little turtles were caught and put into a mineral water bottle. They ran around in the bottle like headless flies, in a panic.

Zhang Benling screwed the bottle cap on, then spread his hand in front of him and carefully observed the purple-red spot on his finger. After confirming that there was no big problem, he blew the dust off his hand, shook his hand and ignored the minor injury.

"If I'm not mistaken, the jars here are all filled with Corpse Turtle Kings."

Zhang Moyu swept his eyes over these jars. There were at least a hundred jars here, and there were probably quite a few corpse turtle kings in the jars.

Although Wuxie didn't provoke any evil spirits, he just happened to fall and released the Corpse Turtle Kings. Judging from the situation, it can be estimated that these Corpse Turtle Kings are the most dangerous things here.

Zhang Moyu secretly sighed in his heart, Wuxie's fate is really useful, saving time and effort and not requiring any mental effort.

Maybe one day I can use Wuxie's fate to go to a place like a mass grave to lure out monsters and clear the map.

Well... let's set the time for this year's Ghost Festival. Then we'll find a Feng Shui treasure land and set up a formation to attract ghosts and evil spirits seven days in advance.

Try to attract more evil spirits and wipe them out in one fell swoop. It is estimated that they can be peaceful for a long time and the process of the end of the metaphysical era can be accelerated.

"You collected this to study it?"

Zhang Moyu saw that Zhang Benling had specially used a dagger to make a few small holes in the bottle to serve as breathing holes for the dozen or so little insects, as if he was afraid that they would suffocate to death.

Upon hearing this, the faint smile on Zhang Benling's face faded a little, and he felt a rare bit of embarrassment.

"Well, I guess so."

Facing the inquiring gaze from his family elders, Zhang Benling paused, and then told them everything he knew, including his own thoughts.

"In fact, there are records of the Corpse Turtle King within the clan, but that was discovered after the patriarch of the Ben generation was born, while investigating snakes and dragons in the Western Regions. You probably don't know about it, elders.

According to records from the tribe at the time, the Corpse Turtle King was once used by the ruler of that land to refine elixirs that would grant eternal youth, thereby strengthening divine power and controlling other nobles.

Zhang Moyu didn't know what he was talking about, but using the Corpse Turtle King to refine the elixir, and seemingly eating it while it was still alive, who came up with this idea? How bold!

Not to mention that this thing has the habit of drilling into people's brains. Even if it is an ordinary poisonous insect, it will be quite difficult to deal with once it enters the human body.

Those who have Qilin blood don't dare to play so extravagantly. If they are not careful, it will cause irreversible damage. If it penetrates the heart or damages the brain nerves, it will be too late to regret.

"You're saying this, aren't you also planning to use this thing to make medicine?"

Zhang Moyu's expression suddenly became serious, as if to say that if you dare to do this, he will break your legs immediately.

Zhang Benling immediately shook his head and spoke with some helplessness.

"How is that possible? Our family doesn't need to resort to such methods. Besides, why bother replicating the Corpse Turtle Pill when it harms others and benefits ourselves? If we have that kind of time, we might as well study our family's gene chain."

Whether it is the eternal youthful effect brought by the Corpse Turtle Pill itself or the hidden value it brings, the Zhang family does not need it.

"so?"

Zhang Moyu retracted his serious expression and calmly and patiently gestured for him to continue.

"The poison of the Corpse Turtle King...is suspected to have the effect of nourishing yin and tonifying yang, and it's a very strong tonic."

Zhang Benling looked a little embarrassed, but since he had started talking, the rest of the words came much more smoothly.

“The source of this speculation is a rumor circulating within the clan.

At that time, I heard that there was a person from the Wuzong lineage, whose name seemed to be Zhang Bensen or something. Due to congenital deficiencies and injuries to key parts of his body during a mission, he eventually became inhumane.

He had a hobby of wanting to eat everything to taste its flavor. He happened to be present during the snake-elimination operation, and after discovering the Corpse Turtle King, he couldn't help but secretly eat a meal of it.

Later, he felt that this poisonous thing was very exciting to eat, so he caught some and brought them back to his tribe to raise and eat from time to time.

After about a year, his body actually returned to normal, and...his functions were even stronger than those of other people."

Speaking of this, Zhang Benling's face was embarrassed and awkward. He was paying attention to this purely out of curiosity, and now he wants to study it because he heard that those little pills that can make you last forever are very expensive in modern society.

Zhang Benling, who shoulders the heavy responsibility of supporting his family and is already obsessed with money, now thinks of making the best use of things and creating value when he sees something.

This is also because his group has a pharmaceutical company with very strong research capabilities.

There are always CEOs of other companies who, while taking a break after discussing cooperation and bonding with each other, would tactfully ask him if he has any kidney-tonifying or conditioning medicine.

He had naively thought that they just wanted to recuperate, so he prescribed some Chinese medicine for them, but those people showed disappointment on their faces.

After encountering them a few times, Zhang Benling realized that their real desire to recuperate was fake, and their real desire was for a better aphrodisiac without side effects!
